For the upcoming (at the time of writing, October 2007)
FOSS.in conference in December 2007 in Bangalore, Vivek
Khurana <hiddenharmony@...> proposed a BoF (birds of
the feather) session for FOSS developers "from schools and
colleges i.e those who are pursuing some degree as well as
working for FOSS.

Said Vivek in a posting to the FOSS.in list: "You could be
coding, testing, bug fixing, managing release or whatever....
Come and talk about your project and your contribution. As I
am not a student, I am not eligible for the BoF, so I request
some student developer to take the role of organizing the
BoF. Why I am proposing this BoF? Because I know for sure
that these lazy school kids wont move by a millimeter unless
someone kicks them in right place."
